Re: Canadian supremacy

Not to diminish Canadian teams, but I think the 1st seed won IRI this year because they came into elims with a very strong strategy in mind, and the best teams available to execute it were Canadian. 1334 carried that alliance. When someone runs an FCS, you have to defend against it. Teams at IRI sent a support bot with their FCS to cancel out the defense, so effectively you have a 2v2 matchup. However, 1334 was able to turn the situation back into a 3v2 when they climbed and dumped in the endgame. Very well played.

There was a set of Canadian teams that were all good at specific things, but their strength as an alliance was greater than the sum of the parts.
